HomeMy WebLinkAboutED CDBG Funding 2014-15Agenda Item No: 5. c Meeting Date: March 17, 2014 SAN RAFAEL CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT Department: Economic Development Prepared by: Stephanie Lovette Economic Development City Manager Approval`s -' SUBJECT: Resolution Recommending Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Project Funding for the Year 2014-15 to the Marin County Board of Supervisors RECOMMENDATION: Adopt Resolution. BACKGROUND: The Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program provides grants from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to local governments for housing, community facilities, and human service programs serving low income residents. The County of Marin administers and oversees the HUD program on behalf of the county and cities within the county. Under the agreement with the county, the City allocates capital and housing funds and the County oversees public service program funding. In 1999, the City adopted an application process and allocation priorities, attached as Attachment 1. The City priorities are larger scale capital and housing projects with City projects first followed by housing. The conformance of this year's projects with these City priorities is shown in Attachment 2. Under the adopted process, City staff reviews housing and capital applications and City Council recommends projects to the Priority Setting Committee (one member from each City in the County, a member of the Board of Supervisors, and non -elected community representatives of protected classes). Councilmember McCullough is the City's representative on the Priority Setting Committee. County staff evaluates the public service applications and a Local Area Committee (one Council member, one member of the Board of Supervisors and one representative of protected classes), makes a recommendation to the Priority Setting Committee. The Priority Setting Committee reviews the recommendations from each Planning Area and the City and makes recommendations to the County Board of Supervisors. Leaving the public service recommendation with the County allows the City to retain the County's expertise in balancing a large number of applications with a limited amount of funds. The process to approve the annual CDBG project funding involves a series of meetings, including tonight's city council meeting. The initial San Rafael Local Area Committee meeting to review the Public Services projects was held on March 11, 2014 (Councilmember McCullough serves on the Public Services Local Area Committee) - the list of Public Services applications is shown in Attachment 3. The Priority Setting Committee Meeting is scheduled for March 24; FOR CITY CLERK ONLY File No.: Council Meeting: Disposition:'' SAN RAFAEL CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT / Page: 2 2014 and the Marin County Board of Supervisors meeting is May 6, 2014. Project sponsors which receive allocations will work with County staff to file the required environmental review, contracts and certifications, and ultimately receive payment when the project is complete. ANALYSIS: Applications Filed Ten applications for housing and capital projects were filed. In addition, the City participates in cost sharing for three annual countywide housing projects. A summary of the projects is attached as Attachment 4 and the applications are shown in Attachment 5. 2014-15 Allocation Amount The estimated total amount of the grant to the County is $1,245,494. San Rafael receives 39.42% of the net County grant (net is minus the County overhead). This percentage reflects the City's share of the total County population as well as poverty and over -crowding factors. San Rafael's grant amount for 2014-15 is $353,004. Of this grant amount, 15% is directed to public service projects selected by the Local Area Committee and 85% is for housing and capital projects selected by City Council. The 2014-15 allocation amounts are: Total County Grant $1,245,494 County Administration ($350,000) Net County Grant $895,494 San Rafael Allocation (39.42%) $353,004 15% Public Service $52,951 85% Housing and Capital $300,053 Less City share of countywide projects ($116,683) Total City Housing and Capital Allocation $183,370 Because of the uncertainty about the federal budget, it is expected that the final Marin County grant amount will vary from the current estimate provided above. Any change to the grant amount will impact San Rafael's allocation. To avoid the need for an additional hearing, staff recommends that the amounts recommended by Council be subject to revision when HUD announces the County's CDBG allocation. At that time, County staff would recalculate the amounts available for each planning area and each activity category. To the extent that cuts are needed or additional funds are available, staff will adjust the preliminary project grant amounts on a proportional basis, rounded to the nearest hundred dollars. Conformance to City Priorities The City priorities adopted in 1999 are to give primary consideration to projects which: A. Are City of San Rafael initiated or are joint partnerships with the City B. Fulfill the requirements of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974 (HUD Regulations) C. Are affordable housing projects or community facility related activities within the San Rafael Planning Area D. Are projects that will move forward quickly, have the greatest impact, and can be completed within a reasonable time frame SAN RAFAEL CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT / Page: 3 A matrix evaluating the conformance of the applications with the City priorities is included as Attachment 2. It should be noted that to qualify under priority D, a project must be a complete, distinct activity that is not part of an ongoing maintenance program, have secure financing, reasonable site control, and not be the first step in a multiple year planning and fundraising campaign. Recommended Projects Four projects are recommended for funding: 1. Public Facilities Accessibility Improvements (ADA) — City of San Rafael 2. Fair Housing Program — Fair Housing of Marin 3. Rehabilitation Loan Program — Marin Housing Authority 4. Residential Accessibility Modifications — Marin Center for Independent Living The funding requests and staff's recommended allocations for Housing and Capital Projects are shown in Attachment 4. In making these recommendations, staff coordinated with County staff and evaluated each project's conformance with City priorities. The City's Public Facilities Accessibility Improvements (ADA) project was given the highest priority for Housing and Capital Projects. The three countywide housing projects were supported because they provide services to the entire County and San Rafael's participation ensures that San Rafael residents continue to receive these services in a manner comparable to other County residents. No funds remained for other projects. The following is a short summary of the specifics of the programs and allocations: CITY OF SAN RAFAEL HOUSING AND CAPITAL PROJECTS Public Facilities Accessibility Improvements (ADA) $183,370 The federal Department of Justice (DOJ) designated San Rafael a participant in their "Project Civic Access" which requires all city facilities to come into compliance with Title II of the American with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA). The City entered into a settlement agreement with the DOJ that requires the City to comply with ADA requirements for all construction or alterations to public facilities and streets that commenced after January 26, 1992. The agreement specifies new curb ramps and revisions to public facilities such as the library, City Hall, City Plaza, parks, parking lots and structures that must be made pursuant to a 10 year schedule (2004 to 2014). The City of San Rafael complied with the settlement agreement and completed most of the work; however, given the size, complexity, and cost of the ADA curb ramps portion of the project, the DOJ granted the City a five year extension to complete the curb ramps and the schedule now runs through 2019. While $300,000 is the typical annual request for the ADA project, given limited funding, only $183,370 was available this year to support this project. COUNTYWIDE HOUSING PROGRAMS Fair Housing Program $20,104 The Fair Housing Program educates landlords and neighbors about fair housing laws and helps maintain and encourage population diversity. The program provides community education and outreach concerning fair housing laws and services, recruits and trains fair housing testers, monitors discrimination in the housing market, investigates and verifies claims of alleged discrimination, counsels victims of housing discrimination and pursues fair housing cases in court. CDBG regulations require that the City and County take affirmative action to further fair housing; funding this program is a basic step towards meeting this obligation. The recommended funding amount was coordinated with the County, and represents San Rafael's share of the overall countywide request. SAN RAFAEL CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT / Page: 4 Rehabilitation Loan Program $90,666 The Marin County Housing Authority loans funds to low income owners of single family homes (including mobile homes) and to non-profit operated group homes to correct substandard housing conditions and to eliminate health and safety hazards. The recommended funding amount was coordinated with the County and represents San Rafael's share of the Countywide request. MCIL Housing Accessibility Modification $5,913 Through its Housing Accessibility Modification Program, the Marin Center for Independent Living provides technical assistance and minor remodeling to make rental housing accessible to lower income residents with impaired mobility. The recommended funding amount was coordinated with the County and represents San Rafael's share of the Countywide allocation. Projects Not Recommended Given the City's obligation under the DOJ settlement agreement to fund ADA related projects, and the fact that City projects are the highest priority for CDBG funding, there is no funding available to contribute to the other projects listed in Attachment 4. Although all the proposed projects serve important needs, the available CDBG funds cannot cover these requests. FISCAL IMPACT: No direct fiscal impact on the City's General Fund. OPTIONS: Adopt the staff recommendation. Alter the staff recommendation of the housing and capital projects selected and/or the amounts allocated. The total housing and capital allocation cannot exceed $300,053. Reject the staff recommendation and provide direction to staff. ACTION REQUIRED: 1. Adopt Resolution recommending Community Development Block Grant project funding for the year 2014-15 to the Marin County Board of Supervisors.

The County of Marin is committed to encouraging new grant applicants. Please callus at 473-6698 for advice about our requirements and what to emphasize in your application, and consider attending one of our informational workshops. HUD requires that all CDBG projects engage in affirmative marketing. That means analyzing which demographic groups are least likely to apply and taking extra steps to market the program or project to those groups. One aspect of affirmative marketing is implementing strategies to make your program more welcoming and comfortable to the groups which are least likely to apply. The goals of affirmative marketing are to enhance neighborhood diversity and to support the County's commitment to affirmatively furthering fair housing and equal opportunity. The concept of fair housing encompasses both federal and state laws that prohibit housing discrimination. The federal Fair Housing Act prohibits discrimination in the sale, rental, and financing of dwellings, and in other housing -related transactions, based on race, color, national origin, religion, sex, familial status (including pregnancy and the presence of children), and disability. In addition, state law prohibits housing discrimination on the basis of age, ancestry, marital status, medical condition; source of income, sexual orientation, gender expression, gender identity, and many other categories. 4.

FHOM's new Executive Director, Caroline Peattie, will provide supervisory services and general grant responsibility. Bilingual Intake Coordinator Karen Crump will provide intake for all client calls. Staff Attorneys Jessica Tankersley Sparks and Katie Musich and Bilingual Housing Counselor Erika Reed will provide individual client services, investigate cases, conduct systemic audits, and assist clients with filing administrative complaints. Ms. Peattie, Ms. Sparks, and Ms. Musich will conduct AFFH training and training for the housing industry. Education Director Adriana Ames will supervise education and outreach activities and literature distribution, organize housing industry trainings, fair housing outreach presentations for agency staff and tenants and AFFH activities., and conduct human rights programs in local schools.

How will you document eligibility? CDBG recipients are required to provide documentation that the majority of the users have incomes at or below the CDBG income limits. The current upper income limits for CDBG beneficiaries are shown in the table below. Applicants for housing funds must describe how the project will ensure long-term affordability. As the only HUD -certified Housing Counseling Agency in Marin County as well the only fair housing agency with a testing program in the County, FHOM provides free services to all Marin residents protected under federal and state fair housing laws. Historically, FHOM's fair housing services have been especially beneficial to Latinos, African-Americans, people with disabilities, immigrants, families with children, female -headed households, senior citizens, and LGBT individuals. FHOM's education services are also available to members of the housing, lending, and advertising industry; providing industry professionals with information about their fair housing responsibilities is another means through which FHOM contributes to decreasing incidences of discrimination and helps to protect the rights of members of protected classes. During the previous grant period, approximately 90% of FHOM's clients were very low-income or low-income. FROM expects to continue serving predominately low-income households. FHOM requests clients to self -certify their household income and documents this information in an electronic database. Each individual seeking our services goes through intake to determine if they are members of a protected class and whether they have a fair housing issue; their case is assessed for the best approach, based on the client's desired outcome, whether the alleged fair housing violation can be corroborated through testing, and other factors. Counselors advise clients of their options for seeking redress, which may include intervention/mediation, administrative complaints, or lawsuits. The need for support throughout this process is a priority with our staff. Household Income Size I Limit Date You Are Funds Date Funds Were When Source Use Amount Applied Committed?

Project Rationale: Why is this project needed? Will it assist an especially needy or underserved group? FHOM is the only provider of fair housing counseling, enforcement, education, and testing activities in the county of Marin. FHOM proposes to continue its work in Marin County, which has traditionally lacked diversity and affordability, with Latinos and African-Americans living largely in two segregated census tracts. The County of Marin contracted with FHOM to draft the County's 2010 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice ("Al"). The Al concluded that Latino, Asian, and particularly Black households are not moving into Marin County in appreciable numbers. Latino and Black renters experience differential treatment in the housing market. Families with children also experience discrimination. 22% of complaints from Marin County filed with HUD from 2011-2013 alleged familial status discrimination; 22% alleged race discrimination; 13% of complaints filed during that same time period alleged discrimination based on national origin; 13% alleged gender discrimination; and 56% of HUD complaints in Marin County involved disability discrimination as a component. These percentages match the complaints FHOM receives: 53% involve disability discrimination as a component; 21% national origin discrimination, 19% race discrimination, 17% familial status discrimination, and 10% gender discrimination. Marin County's immigrant population, and in particular Latino immigrant population, continues to grow exponentially. As documented in the Al, immigrants in the rental market are particularly vulnerable to discrimination given that Marin County has no rent ordinance or just cause eviction requirements. As noted above, in FY2012-13, 21% of complaints received by FHOM alleged national origin discrimination. FHOM's bilingual housing counselor works with Spanish-speaking clients to provide information on their fair housing rights and assist tenants with exercising those rights. FHOM has conducted two audits to measure the extent of discrimination against Latinos in Marin. FHOM's most recent site test audit found that Latinos experienced discrimination in 31% of their contacts with housing providers. Discriminatory practices included offering fewer units, quoting higher rents, and instituting a longer approval process for Latino applicants. In 2005, FHOM conducted the first major regional voice -identification audit under a FHIP grant. Based on voice recognition, housing providers treated Latino applicants less favorably in 55% of calls. As a result of receiving a complaint from a Latina woman who was turned away from an apartment complex in San Rafael and the audit testing at the same complex yielding similar results, FHOM filed a lawsuit that resulted in a successful settlement. FHOM is currently finishing a similar audit in Marin County during this fiscal year. As identified in the Al, LEP persons must have access to information in their native language in order to understand and exercise their fair housing rights. To better serve the needs of LEP persons, FHOM employs four bilingual staff members fluent in Spanish. Further, FHOM has a protocol in place to provide multilingual counseling, education, and outreach services. FHOM collaborates with community-based organizations to provide in-person translation services, and utilizes the AT&T interpretation service to communicate with 175 languages not spoken by staff. As a result of interviews with borrowers with loans from subprime lenders, FHOM discovered that many loans had predatory features and some borrowers were unaware of the high cost of their loans. Black and Latino home loan borrowers are subjected to higher denial rates, and Blacks and Latinos receive a disproportionately small share of prime loans as compared to their share of Marin County's households. In FY2012-13, FHOM served over 300 clients with foreclosure prevention services for a variety of results including 28 clients who received loan modifications. C. Equal Opportunity_ For all projects, which demographic groups are least likely to apply, and what affirmative marketing steps do you plan to reach them? (Affirmative marketing means analyzing which demographic groups are least likely to apply and taking extra steps to market the program to those groups. One aspect of affirmative marketing is implementing strategies to make your program more welcoming and comfortable to the groups which are least likely to apply. Be sure to consider race, ethnicity, and disability, as well as other demographic factors; in your analysis) FHOM has identified the following demographic groups as less likely to apply for help, and more in need of affirmative marketing: 1) Latinos, especially monolingual Spanish -speakers and immigrants who may not realize the extent of fair housing protection against national origin discrimination; 2) African-Americans; 3) Asians; especially non-native English speakers; and 4) people with disabilities, including senior citizens, who are unaware of the reasonable accommodation/modification requirements of fair housing laws. FHOM's affirmative marketing plan is rooted in ongoing publicity and building strong community partnerships. Because FHOM has worked to further fair housing in Marin County for the last 30 years, many social service providers and community advocates are familiar with the services FHOM provides. To supplement existing outreach and marketing efforts to Latinos, FHOM will maintain its close relationship with Canal Alliance and the Latino Council. Four FHOM staff members are fluent in Spanish, and FHOM's Bilingual Intake Counselor conducts weekly on-site client counseling sessions at Canal Alliance. In 2014-15, FHOM will seek out the opportunity to present fair housing information at meetings of Latino groups. To better reach African-American clients, FHOM will work with the Action Coalition of Equity's Fair Housing Committee, Grassroots Leadership Network of Marin, the Marin City Community Service District (including Manzanita Recreation Center), and Women Helping All People, for literature distribution and presentations of educational programs. To affirmatively market fair housing services to Asian clients, FHOM will continue to work with the Asian Advocacy Project to provide information about legal protections for members of protected classes. To build on existing marketing of services to people with disabilities, FHOM plans to continue to enrich its close working relationship with the Marin Center for Independent Living. For the last four years, FHOM has provided MCIL with funding to help clients make accessibility modifications. As a general strategy, FHOM will update its 40 -page Landlord-Tenant/Fair Housing booklet in three languages (English, Spanish, and Vietnamese) and distribute copies to agencies that work with members of protected classes. FHOM will also regularly distribute other multilingual brochures, including those focused on reasonable accommodations and foreclosure prevention. FHOM will continue to train staff at agencies who work with individuals in protected classes so that staff can make appropriate referrals to FHOM when discrimination arises. If this project involves housing, how will it affirmatively further fair housing? FHOM is committed to affirmatively. furthering fair housing and implementing an AFFH plan that works to address and overcome the impediments to fair housing choice that exist in Marin County. Through its proposed project, FHOM will address its obligation to affirmatively further fair housing by operating a full-service fair housing center experienced in fair housing counseling, investigation and enforcement activities, loan modification and mortgage rescue intervention, and fair housing and fair lending education and outreach. FHOM conducted the 2010 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice for Marin County. With this project, FHOM plans to address impediments to housing choice, particularly those based on disability, race, national origin, and familial status, by engaging in the following activities: • FHOM will maintain an office where residents can come to obtain fair housing and equal opportunity materials and participate in fair housing educational activities, as well as report and file complaints of suspected or perceived housing discrimination. FHOM will maintain its website and ensure that it details the advocacy, programs, counseling and complaint intake services offered to residents by FHOM. FHOM will utilize its Spanish language materials in the provision of all fair housing education/outreach services within the three counties to be served, and offer interpretative services to non-English speaking individuals who contact FHOM seeking assistance. FHOM will advertise, promote and solicit responses from participants regarding the need for ASL and foreign language interpretation services in the provision of all fair housing education/outreach, and enforcement services within the region, and make ASL and foreign language interpretation services available at all events where prospective participants indicate a need for the interpretation services at least five days in advance of the event. FHOM will continue to implement its fair housing education and outreach program within the region. • FHOM will serve as an advocate and educational resource to local elected officials and municipal staff at all levels about the obligations of recipients of federal funds to affirmatively further fair housing. • FHOM will make its staff available for guest speaker appearances on radio/television talk and feature programs, at conferences and workshops throughout the region, when requested, and will disseminate fair housing literature throughout the region through various methods as appropriate. • FHOM will continue to monitor online housing advertisements in the region and provide education and advocacy that discourages discriminatory advertising and statements practices in all forms. • FHOM will counsel complainants who have encountered illegal discrimination of options available and provide assistance to complainants in filing administrative complaints as well as lawsuits, as appropriate. FHOM will maintain its testing program in the County, doing testing upon complaint and in random audits for national origin and familial status discrimination. FHOM will be an organizational complainant and initiate administrative complaints and/or lawsuits as appropriate, based upon testing evidence obtained. • FHOM will be a proactive advocate for the effective enforcement and utilization of the federal Fair Housing Amendments Act, the California Fair Employment and Housing Act, and HUD Guidelines and Recommendations that exist to discourage and eliminate housing discrimination within the region based on any protected class. • FHOM will counsel homeowners and loan applicants who may have experienced lending discrimination in violation of the Fair Housing Amendments Act, and provide foreclosure prevention intervention services to residents at risk of foreclosure or who are facing the loss of their primary residence due to imminent foreclosure when appropriate, as resources allow. The above activities will help to overcome impediments to fair housing choice by protecting people in protected classes from discrimination in the rental market, increasing housing stability by fair housing advocacy and education for people from protected classes, and expanding rental options available to families by helping to ensure open, diverse, and equitable communities through continued outreach and enforcement. If this project involves construction, discuss (1) your plans for recruiting women- and minority-owned firms to bid on the design and development of this project, and (2) your plans to provide employment opportunities to low-income people and businesses owned by low-income people. D. Accessibility: What steps are you taking to make this project (and your overall program) accessible to people with physical and other disabilities? Located in downtown San Rafael, FHOM's offices are fully accessible and within walking distance of a major public transportation hub. FHOM has a TTC relay phone number for clients with hearing impairments. FHOM will continue to review its internal policies to ensure that its offices and services are fully accessible to all clients, regardless of physical or mental disabilities. E.

This provisional rate is currently being negotiated with HUD/Heath & Human Services FAIR HOUSING OF MARIN ANNUAL REPORT: FISCAL YEAR 2012-13 y The Numbers Between July 1, 2012 and June 30, 2013, Fair Housing of Marin fielded a total of 1,208 inquiries from tenants, homeowners, social service providers, and advocates across Marin and Sonoma Counties. Nearly three out of every four inquiries were lodged with regard to rental properties, 27% related to homeownership or lending. Of these inquiries, 243 were housing discrimination complaints. By far, the majority of housing discrimination complaints (128 out of 243, or 53%)received by FHOM during the last fiscal year alleged differential treatment on the basis of disability. FHOM took 52 complaints of national origin discrimination (21% of inquiries), 46 complaints of race discrimination (19% of inquiries), and 41 complaints of familial status discrimination (17% of inquiries).' FHOM also received 25 complaints of gender discrimination, three complaints regarding age discrimination, two complaints alleging source of income discrimination, and one complaint alleging discrimination on the basis of ancestry. Through our Housing Counseling Program, we intervened in 24 rental housing matters on behalf of tenants, requested 27 reasonable accommodations (of which more than 3/4 were granted), and referred 12 housing discrimination complaints to the federal Department of Housing and Urban Development or the California Department of Fair Employment and Housing. At A Glance • 1,208 clients served • 243 housing discrimination complaints • 21 reasonable accommodations granted • 12 reasonable modification requests funded • 148 housing providers trained • 12 administrative complaints filed • 3 complaints settled for a total of $33,000 • 28 loan modifications negotiated • $12,000 recovered for homeowners through the Independent Foreclosure Review Forty-three percent of FHOM's clients were non -Hispanic White; 37% were Latino. An additional 12% of clients were Black/African-American. Through our Foreclosure Prevention Program, we served 271 homeowners facing foreclosure, counseled 135 homeowners through the Keep Your Home California program, and successfully procured loan modifications on behalf of 28 homeowners. FHOM also assisted two homeowners with recovering $12,000 total through the Independent Foreclosure Review Program. Our fair housing literature reached more than 6,460 English, Spanish, and Vietnamese -speaking households. FHOM conducted 10 fair housing law and practice training sessions, providing comprehensive fair housing education for 148 housing providers. In addition, FHOM made fair housing presentations to 130 tenants and staff at social service and/or advocacy organizations. FHOM reached 700 schoolchildren through our Storytelling Program, and successfully lobbied for passage of fair housing proclamations by 12 Marin municipalities ' As some complaints alleged discrimination on more than one basis, aggregate percentages exceed 100. Who We Help / A client called FHOM after he had contacted a landlord in response to an ad for an affordable one - bedroom apartment in a great neighborhood, close to his job and social network. During the initial phone call, the landlord seemed interested in having the client view and apply for the unit. However, when the client mentioned his young daughter spent some weekends in his home, the landlord immediately stated the apartment would no longer work for him. Testing by FHOM confirmed the landlord employed a discriminatory occupancy policy that effectively denied housing to families with children. FHOM represented the client in an administrative complaint, which was ultimately resolved through a mediated settlement that included monetary damages, fair housing training, and a policy change. FROM settled two administrative complaints alleging race discrimination on the basis of an innovative Race/Voice Identification Audit conducted in Solano County and the City of Richmond. FHOM's investigation uncovered evidence that multiple housing providers consistently offered White testers lower security deposits, lower or non-existent minimum income requirements, increased availability, more flexible lease terms, and more information about amenities and encouragement to apply than similarly -situated African-American testers. For example, at one property, a leasing agent told an African-American tester that the security deposit was nearly $1,000, and that there was a 3x monthly rent minimum income requirement. In stark contrast, the White tester was told that the security deposit could be as low as $500, and that there was no minimum income requirement. At another property, leasing agents provided African-American and White testers with different applications: only the African-American tester was asked whether he had any criminal convictions. Based on evidence of pervasive and systemic race discrimination across two counties, FHOM filed agency administrative complaints. FHOM ultimately settled these complaints for a total sum of $29,000, which was used by the agency to continue to affirmatively further our fair housing efforts. FHOM intervened on behalf of a disabled, African-American senior citizen in subsidized housing facing eviction over the holidays. FHOM successfully negotiated an agreement with the property management company to save the client's home and connect her with social service providers who could help her remain stable and housed in the future. ~`FHOM successfully acquired a loan modification for a homeowner, which allowed the homeowner and his elderly father to stay in their San Rafael home. A native of Haiti who struggled with language barriers, the homeowner came to FHOM when faced with pressing deadlines from his lender to submit paperwork following a default notice. His default resulted from economic hardship following the theft of his car and his identity being mistaken and leading to an unlawful arrest; the ensuing legal defense and the purchase of a new car drained his resources. FHOM assisted the homeowner with understanding his paperwork and submitting his loan modification documents on time. FHOM also collaborated with the homeowner's lender to ensure proper facilitation of the loan modification documents. The lender granted the homeowner a principal reduction of $600.00/month and a lowered interest rate. Organization Profile - 2014-15 Data Collection Pilot The County of Marin is interested in more deeply understanding the population demographics of those who staff, govern and/or utilize the services of Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and HOME Program grantee and applicant organizations. More deeply understanding these demographics will address some of the topics highlighted in the 2011 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing in Marin. The data gathered on this form will NOT determine an organization's likelihood to receive CDBG or HOME funding. If you do not collect or do not wish to share the demographic information requested, please check the appropriate box below. We hope you will be able to participate in this pilot project.

HUD requires that all CDBG projects engage in affirmative marketing. That means analyzing which demographic groups are least likely to apply and taking extra steps to market the program or project to those groups. One aspect of affirmative marketing is implementing strategies to make your program more welcoming and comfortable to the groups which are least likely to apply. The goals of affirmative marketing are to enhance neighborhood diversity and to support the County's commitment to affirmatively furthering fair housing and equal opportunity. The concept of fair housing encompasses both federal and state laws that prohibit housing discrimination. The federal Fair Housing Act prohibits discrimination in the sale, rental, and financing of dwellings, and in other housing -related transactions, based on race, color, national origin, religion, sex, familial status (including pregnancy and the presence of children), and disability. In addition, state law prohibits housing discrimination on the basis of age, ancestry, marital status, medical condition, source of income, sexual orientation, gender expression, gender identity, and many other categories. 4.

The County of Marin is committed to encouraging new grant applicants. Please call us at 473-6698 for advice about our requirements and what to emphasize in your application, and consider attending one of our informational workshops. HUD requires that all CDBG projects engage in affirmative marketing. That means analyzing which demographic groups are least likely to apply and taking extra steps to market the program or project to those groups. One aspect of affirmative marketing is implementing strategies to make your program more welcoming and comfortable to the groups which are least likely to apply. The goals of affirmative marketing are to enhance neighborhood diversity and to support the County's commitment to affirmatively furthering fair housing and equal opportunity. The concept of fair housing encompasses both federal and state laws that prohibit housing discrimination. The federal Fair Housing Act prohibits discrimination in the sale, rental, and financing of dwellings, and in other housing -related transactions, based on race, color, national origin, religion, sex, familial status (including pregnancy and the presence of children), and disability. In addition, state law prohibits housing discrimination on the basis of age, ancestry, marital status, medical condition, source of income, sexual orientation, gender expression, gender identity, and many other categories. 4. Project Location: (Precise street address). For housing and capital projects, include the year the building was constructed and the Assessor's Parcel Number. Marin Center for Independent Living is permanently housed at 710 Fourth Street, San Rafael, CA. Services are provided throughout Marin County at client's houses and apartments. 5. Project Description: The Residential Accessibility Modifications Program of Marin -CIL serves Marin residents with disabilities by increasing housing accessibility. The majority of clients have orthopedic, visual or hearing impairments, environmental illness, HIV+ or AIDS or are frail, elderly people. This program has been in operation for thirty years. Services are provided to individuals who are at risk of losing their independence and being confined in nursing homes without the modifications. Marin CIL is the only agency in Marin that directly assists people in this manner. 6. Total Project Cost: (Include all costs for this particular project regardless of source.) Personnel CDBG Other Sources Total Supervision Access Counselor $ 9,000 $ 9,000 Benefits $ 3,000 3,000 Total Personnel: $12,000 12,000 Operating Occupancy, Postage, etc. $ 6,000 $ 6,000 Modification; Labor, $30,000 $20,000 $50,000 Permits, Fees Total Operating: $30,000 $26,000 $ 56,000 Total Project: $30,N0 a8_0 0 0 $_68,000 Project Budget for CDBG Funds: Budget must include an itemized estimate of how you would spend the CDBG amount you are requesting, as accurate and comprehensive as possible. For example, land or building acquisition costs, construction costs, remodeling costs, architectural and engineering fees, salaries, administrative expenses, etc. For rehabilitation or construction projects, you must include a contractor's written bid or other equally reliable cost estimate, using Davis - Bacon wage rates if applicable. If your project includes residential rehabilitation, describe your plans to comply with federal lead paint regulations. All CDBG funds are spent on permanent residential home modifications for seniors and people living with disabilities. Examples of the type of projects include, but are not limited to: Ramp installation -- approximate cost $5,500 Roll in shower system -- approximate cost $6,000 Exterior railing and stair repair -- approximate cost $6,500 Exterior wheel chair lift -- approximate cost $6,000 Interior barrier removal -- approximate cost $2,500 Safety rails -- approximate cost $2,500 8. Other Sources of Funds for this Project: Include amount, source, use, status, and timing of funds other than CDBG funds, if applicable. Have you applied for the other funds? Are the other funds firmly committed for this project? Source Use Bob Roberts Grab bars Client Asst Fund Small repairs Date You Are Funds Amount Applied Committed? Up to N/A Yes 500.00 Date Funds Were When Committed Available Program began Available 7/1/2008 now 9. Project Implementation: Who will be responsible for implementing the project? How will it be implemented and what is the proposed schedule for project implementation? Roland Rouda, Assistive Technology Advocate, with the supervision of the Executive Director is responsible for the implementation of this ongoing project. Household eligibility requirements (income verification, contractor bidding estimates, and lead toxicity analysis) are documented and maintained on file at Marin CIL. The project is ongoing, and access modification services are provided to eligible households on a first-come, first -serve basis. Awaiting list is also maintained. 10. Need for the Project: A. Need Group What groups or individuals will benefit from the project? What income level will you serve? How will you document eligibility? CDBG recipients are required to provide documentation that the majority of the users have incomes at or below the CDBG income limits. The current upper income limits for CDBG beneficiaries are shown in the table below. Applicants for housing funds must describe how the project will ensure long-term affordability. Household Size Income Limit 1 $59,100 2 67,550 3 76,000 4 84,400 5 91,200 6 97,950 7 104.700 8 111,450 Project beneficiaries are Marin residents who are living with all types of disabilities. Seventy- five percent of qualifying households have annual incomes of under $23,000. Households not meeting the CDBG guidelines for assistance receive counseling, advocacy and information and referral. Eligibility is documented through verification of household income. This project ensures that local housing becomes accessible. Annually, an average of five households are assisted with permanent installations, while an additional 5 households are wait -listed for services as funding permits. B. Prosect Rationale: Why is this project needed? Will it assist an especially needy or underserved group? The need for residential access is far-reaching and not limited to the minority who use wheelchairs and crutches in their youth and middle age. Most housing has not been designed for the entire human life span. Homeowners need modifications as they age. Without access, they often lose their ability to function independently and safely. Too many seniors and people who live with disabilities are in board and care facilities simply because they use wheelchairs, require assistance in the bathroom or have injured themselves when they did not have access to the simple modifications which are provided by this project. A common factor shared by all disabled renters and many seniors is the absolute need for access in combination with the scarcity of available accessible rentals. The most profound effect of this program is the steady increase of accessible housing that is created with each job the program completes, meeting the needs of the current and future residents C. Equal Opportunity: For all projects, which demographic groups are least likely to apply, and what affirmative marketing steps do you plan to reach them? (Affirmative marketing means analyzing which demographic groups are least likely to apply and taking extra steps to market the program to those groups. One aspect of affirmative marketing is implementing strategies to make your program more welcoming and comfortable to the groups which are least likely to apply. Be sure to consider race, ethnicity, and disability, as well as other demographic factors, in your analysis.) All consumers of MCIL are people with disabilities, a protected class, as defined by HUD. In addition MCIL engages in outreach to underserved communities in Novato, the Canal Area of San Rafael and Marin City. MCIL is currently partnering with Community Action Marin and Marin Grassroots Leadership Network to promote the "We Are Marin" campaign. The campaign centers on storytelling of individuals who have faced housing discrimination in several areas including racial profiling, disability access and reasonable accommodations. These stories are being collected on the County of Marin's website. In addition our 3 organizations organized the first county wide festival "We Are Marin". The Festival will bring diverse community members together to celebrate Art, Food and Culture. The 2013 Festival had to be cancelled the day of the event due to rain. Planning for the 2014 Festival is underway. As part of the festival MCIL will be promoting our services and advocacy. The agency has staff who are culturally and linguistically fluent in Spanish. We also have access to a Vietnamese volunteer. MCIL works very closely with Canal Community Alliance, Community Action Marin, Asian Advocacy Project and Marin City Community Development Corporation. If this project involves housing, how will it affirmatively further fair housing? If this project involves construction, discuss (1) your plans for recruiting women- and minority-owned firms to bid on the design and development of this project, and (2) your plans to provide employment opportunities to low-income people and businesses owned by low-income people. D. Accessibility: What steps are you taking to make this project (and your overall program) accessible to people with physical and other disabilities? Marin -CIL is committed to increasing access for people with all types of disabling conditions. In this role, the agency advocates for individuals whose disabilities necessitate ongoing physical and programmatic understanding, support and access from the community. E. Green Building: For new construction or rehabilitation, what will you do to incorporate "green building" principles? Typical residential property rehabilitation services provided to low income, underserved households by program are quite limited in scope (e.g., ramp and wheelchair lift installations; widening doorways; enhancing bathroom access, etc.), "green building" principles will be encouraged and applied whenever possible o For further information, please call Roy Bateman (473-6698).

Project Location: (Precise street address). This is a citywide project to make San Rafael's sidewalks, walkways, public buildings, parks, etc. accessible to individuals with disabilities.. Therefore there are no specific street addresses. 5. Project Description: The City of San Rafael entered into a 10 -year settlement agreement with the U.S. Department of Justice in 2004. The agreement requires the City to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) as it relates to the public right-of-way (sidewalks, streets, etc.) and facilities. All requested funds are for the construction of curb ramps that will make San Rafael's sidewalks and streets accessible for wheelchair users and other individuals with disabilities. The agreement calls for the construction of approximately 800 curb ramps on those "...streets, roads, and highways that have been constructed or altered since January 26, 1992." 6. Total Project Cost: $300,000 (100% CDBG); Public Works staff is currently designing curb ramps for this rehabilitation/construction project. Adherence to Davis -Bacon wage rates will be mandatory. 7. Project Budget for CDBG Funds: Attached is the June 14, 2012 bid summary from San Rafael's most recent ADA -DOJ curb ramp construction project. These figures are indicative of the costs we expect to pay when we bid the next CDBG-funded ramp project. Other Sources of Funds for this Project: There are no non-CDBG funds allocated to the project. Date You Are Funds Date Funds Were When Use Amount Applied Committed? Committed Available Source 9. Project Implementation: The Department of Public Works is responsible for project implementation. San Rafael will enter into a contract with a construction company to install curb ramps at designated intersections throughout the City. As stated earlier, this is an ongoing project mandated by the City's 2004 Settlement Agreement with the federal Department of Justice. 10. Need for the Project: San Rafael's annual curb ramp construction project benefits individuals with a broad range of needs. Examples are wheel chair users, others with ambulation issues, those who are visually impaired, etc. The project will serve individuals with disabilities who, based on 2010 census information, are considered to be low income relative to the non -disabled population. A. Need Group: The project will address the needs of individuals with abroad range of physical disabilities. e.g., wheel chair users, people with ambulation issues and those who are visually impaired. According to the 2010 census, the median income for disabled individuals living in San Rafael was well below the income limits shown on the table below. Household Size Income Limit 1 $59,100 2 67,550 3 76,000 4 84,400 5 91,200 6 97,950 7 104,700 8 111,450 B. Project Rationale: This project is needed to support the ongoing process of improving the accessibility of San Rafael's public right-of-way infrastructure (sidewalks, crosswalks, roads) to better serve the needs of individuals with a broad range of disabilities C. Equal Opportunity: As stated, the project will serve a diverse group of individuals with disabilities by constructing curb ramps throughout San Rafael. The nature of this construction project, managed by San Rafael's Public Works Department, therefore precludes the need for outreach to a specific demographic group. If this project involves housing, how will it affirmatively further fair housing? N/A If this project involves construction, discuss (1) your plans for recruiting women- and minority-owned firms to bid on the design and development of this project, and (2) your plans to provide employment opportunities to low-income people and businesses owned by low-income people. The City's contractor must comply with Caltrans Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) requirements. San Rafael's current DBE "target" is 7.71%. Contractors hired for San Rafael projects utilizing federal Department of Transportation (DOT) and/or Caltrans funds must make at least 7.71% of the construction budget available to minority-owned firms, e.g., African-American, Asian- Pacific American, Native American, women. The goal of the DBE program is "to ensure nondiscrimination in the award and administration of DOT -assisted contracts", and to "create a level playing field on which DBE's can compete fairly for DOT -assisted contracts." D. Accessibility: By nature and definition, San Rafael's curb ramp project enhances public right-of-way accessibility for individuals with disabilities. E. Green Building: Green building principles are an integral part of the project. Curb ramp materials such as cement are produced by Dutra Materials, only a short driving distance from any of the curb ramp construction sites, thus minimizing construction vehicle emissions. o For further information, please call Roy Bateman (473-6698).

Please call us at 473-6698 for advice about our requirements and what to emphasize in your application, and consider attending one of our informational workshops. HUD requires that all CDBG projects engage in affirmative marketing. That means analyzing which demographic groups are least likely to apply and taking extra steps to market the program or project to those groups. One aspect of affirmative marketing is implementing strategies to make your program more welcoming and comfortable to the groups which are least likely to apply. The goals of affirmative marketing are to enhance neighborhood diversity and to support the County's commitment to affirmatively furthering fair housing and equal opportunity. The concept of fair housing encompasses both federal and state laws that prohibit housing discrimination. The federal Fair Housing Act prohibits discrimination in the sale, rental, and financing of dwellings, and in other housing -related transactions, based on race, color, national origin, religion, sex, familial status (including pregnancy and the presence of children), and disability. In addition, state law prohibits housing discrimination on the basis of age, ancestry, marital status, medical condition, source of income, sexual orientation, gender expression, gender identity, and many other categories. 4. Project Location: (Precise street address). For housing and capital projects, include the year the building was constructed and the Assessor's Parcel Number. 108 Spring Grove, San Rafael, CA 94903 _7' — 5. Project Description: Horizon House is a group home for 5 adults with mental illness. Buckelew Programs staff provides independent living support services. Without this home; and the support provided by staff, these disabled Marin County residents would likelybeliving in an -Institution, or on the street. horizon House is in need of exterior painting and a bathroom remodel. 6. Total Project Cost: (Include all costs for this Particular project regardless Of Source.) $14,620 7. Project Budget for CDBG Funds: Budget must include an itemized estimate of how you would spend the CDBG amount you are requesting, as accurate and comprehensive as possible. For example, land or building acquisition costs, construction costs, remodeling costs, architectural and engineering fees, salaries, administrative expenses, etc. For rehabilitation or construction projects, you must include a contractor's written bid or other equally reliable cost estimate, using Davis - Bacon wage rates if applicable. If your project includes residential rehabilitation, describe your plans to comply with federal lead paint regulations. Item Estimated Cost Exterior paint job $6,385 Bathroom remodel $8,235 (See attached bids for details) 8. Other Sources of Funds for this Project: Include amount, source, use, status, and timing of funds other than CDBG funds, if applicable. Have you applied for the other funds? Are the other funds firmly committed for this project? Date You Are Funds Date Funds Were When Source Use Amount Applied Committed? Committed Available None 9. Project Implementation: Who will be responsible for implementing the project? How will it be implemented and what is the proposed schedule for project implementation? The project will be supervised and implemented by Jeff Helvig, Team Leader. Work can start as soon as funding is received. 10. Need for the Project: A. Need Group What groups or individuals will benefit from the project? What income level will you serve? How will you document eligibility? CDBG recipients are required to provide documentation that the majority of the users have incomes at or below the CDBG income limits. The current upper income limits for CDBG beneficiaries are shown in the table below. Applicants for housing funds must describe how the project will ensure long-term affordability. All residents are referred through Marin Community Mental Health Services; they are disabled, have income at or below 30% of median income and meet CDBG income limits. Their income is documented in their resident file. Most have SSI as their only source of income, which currently amounts to approximately $1,086 monthly — less than 20% of Marin County's median household income, based on 2010 data. Long-term affordability for this project is assured through State and Federal mental health funding, associated by Community Mental Health Services. Household Size Income Limit 1 $59,100 2 67,550 3 76,000 4 84,400 5 91,200 6 97,950 7 104,700 8 1 111,450 B. Proiect Rationale: Why is this project needed? Will it assist an especially needy or underserved group? By maintaining homes for the disabled in residential neighborhoods, Buckelew Programs is sustaining a housing pattern that allows low income, mentally disabled residents to live in neighborhoods they would not generally have access to or be able to afford on their own, creating a more fair and balanced residential mix and facilitating community integration of those with severe and persistent mental illness. Many of our residents would be homeless or in an institution if not for Buckelew housing and support services. C. Equal Opportunity: For all projects, which demographic groups are least likely to apply, and what affirmative marketing steps do you plan to reach them? (Affirmative marketing means analyzing which demographic groups are least likely to apply and taking extra steps to market the program to those groups. One aspect of affirmative marketing is implementing strategies to make your program more welcoming and comfortable to the groups which are least likely to apply. Be sure to consider race, ethnicity, and disability, as well as other demographic factors, in your analysis.) Community Mental Health Services (CMHS) monitors the demographics (resident, applicant, census data) of the market area to track race, ethnicity, religion or persons with disabilities for purposes of low-income housing units. They determine if the population least likely to apply for housing is the population identified, then provide advertising most applicable to the demographic groups, and make changes when applicable. According to CMHS's Mental Health Services Act (MHSA) Community Supports and Services Plan (2006), one of the goals of the MHSA is to increase "outreach and expansion of services to client populations in order to eliminate ethnic disparities and expand access to unserved and underserved individuals" The Latino population has been identified as the largest underserved group in Marin County, and "various strategies such as increased and strategic deployment of bilingual and bicultural staff, cultural competency training and targeted programming have been effective in increasing access to services." For instance, `it is known that many Latinos seek services for mental health problems from primary care health care providers rather than from mental health providers. New strategies such as contracting with Latino -serving organizations for outreach and engagement and providing mental health services within the Latino community, offer promise for better access. " Together with its partner CMHS, Buckelew Programs continues to increase the cultural competence of our workforce through training and targeted job posting for hiring more bilingual/bicultural staff, in order to achieve a higher penetration rate and more adequately serve Latino clients in our housing programs. (Source:http.//www.co.marin.ca.us/depts/HH/main/mh/mhsa_css/CSS State version of Plan.pdf) The most recent MHSA update (FY 2013-2014) states: "The Mental Health Services Act is intended to expand and transform community mental health services throughout California, with an emphasis on serving communities that are currently un- or underserved. During Marin's 2004 MHSA planning process the adult Latino population was identified as the most un/underserved by existing County mental health services. Asian Pacific Islanders were also categorized as underserved. Other identified underserved populations included older adults, transition aged youth (16-25 years old) and persons living in West Marin. Populations were designated underserved based on their proportionate use of Medi -Cal services relative to their presence in the Marin County safety net population. Designation of un/underserved populations takes into consideration the portion of Marin residents who are eligible for County mental health services, best represented by the "Medi -Cal Beneficiaries"' column on the following table. Overall, since the implementation of MHSA programs the rate of services provided by the County Mental Health has increased substantially for the Latino population, youth and older adults."

See above. In addition, by maintaining homes for the disabled in residential neighborhoods, Buckelew Programs is sustaining a housing pattern that allows low income, mentally disabled residents to live in neighborhoods they would not generally have access to or be able to afford on their own, creating a more fair and balanced residential mix and facilitating community integration of those with severe and persistent mental illness. Staff also regularly attend trainings at Fair Housing Marin to stay current on laws and regulations. If this project involves housing, how will it affirmatively further fair housing? See above.

Please call us at 473-6698 for advice about our requirements and what to emphasize in your application, and consider attending one of our informational workshops. HUD requires that all CDBG projects engage in affirmative marketing. That means analyzing which demographic groups are least likely to apply and taking extra steps to market the program or project to those groups. One aspect of affirmative marketing is implementing strategies to make your program more welcoming and comfortable to the groups which are least likely to apply. The goals of affirmative marketing are to enhance neighborhood diversity and to support the County's commitment to affirmatively furthering fair housing and equal opportunity. The concept of fair housing encompasses both federal and state laws that prohibit housing discrimination. The federal Fair Housing Act prohibits discrimination in the sale, rental, and financing of dwellings, and in other housing -related transactions, based on race, color, national origin, religion, sex, familial status (including pregnancy and the presence of children), and disability. In addition, state law prohibits housing discrimination on the basis of age, ancestry, marital status, medical condition, source of income, sexual orientation, gender expression, gender identity, and many other categories. 4. Project Location: (Precise street address). For housing and capital projects, include the year the building was constructed and the Assessor's Parcel Number. 7 Washington Street, San Rafael, CA 94903. Year of construction: 1968. Parcel #: 179-172-09 5. Project Description: Lakeside House is a 6 bed group home that provides semi-independent living for Marin County adults with severe and persistent mental illness. All clients have incomes at or below the poverty level. The house is in need of extensive renovations, including the following: - Window replacement - Pave existing gravel drive way - Landscape front yard for curb appeal - Replace sewer line - Replace carpets - Exterior paint for main house and outbuilding - Paint Master Bedroom 6. Total Project Cost: (include all costs for this particular project regardless of source.) $33,077 7. Project Budget for CDBG Funds: Budget must include an itemized estimate of how you would spend the CDBG amount you are requesting, as accurate and comprehensive as possible. For example, land or building acquisition costs, construction costs, remodeling costs, architectural and engineering fees, salaries, administrative expenses, etc. For rehabilitation or construction projects, you must include a contractor's written bid or other equally reliable cost estimate, using Davis - Bacon wage rates if applicable. If your project includes residential rehabilitation, describe your plans to comply with federal lead paint regulations. Item Estimated Cost Window replacement $9,810 Driveway and yard improvements $7,420 Carpet replacement $6,700 Exterior paint main house and outbld . $5,920 Sewer repairs $2,777 Paint Master Bedroom $450 (See attached bids for details) 8. Other Sources of Funds for this Project: Include amount, source, use, status, and timing of funds other than CDBG funds, if applicable. Have you applied for the other funds? Are the other funds firmly committed for this project? Date You Are Funds Date Funds Were When Source Use Amount Applied Committed? Committed Available None 9. Project Implementation: Who will be responsible for implementing the project? How will it be implemented and what is the proposed schedule for project implementation? The project will be supervised and implemented by Elaine Purcell, Team Leader. Work can start as soon as funding is received. 10. Need for the Project: A. Need Group What groups or individuals will benefit from the project? What income level will you serve? How will you document eligibility? CDBG recipients are required to provide documentation that the majority of the users have incomes at or below the CDBG income limits. The current upper income limits for CDBG beneficiaries are shown in the table below. Applicants for housing funds must describe how the project will ensure long-term affordability. All residents are referred through Marin Community Mental Health Services; they are disabled, have income at or below 30°/,; of median income and meet CDBG income limits. Their income is documented in their resident file. Most have SSI as their only source of income, which currently amounts to approximately $1,086 monthly — less than 20% of Marin County's median household income , based on 2010 data. Long-term affordability for this project is assured through State and Federal mental health funding, associated by Community Mental Health Services. Household Income Size Limit 1 $59,100 2 67,550 3 76,000 4 84,400 5 91,200 6 97,950 7 104,700 8 111,450 B. Prosect Rationale: Why is this project needed? Will it assist an especially needy or underserved group? By maintaining homes for the disabled in residential neighborhoods, Buckelew Programs is sustaining a housing pattern that allows low income, mentally disabled residents to live in neighborhoods they would not generally have access to or be able to afford on their own, creating a more fair and balanced residential mix and facilitating community integration of those with severe and persistent mental illness. Many of our residents would be homeless or in an institution if not for Buckelew housing and support services. C. Equal Opportunity: For all projects, which demographic groups are least likely to apply, and what affirmative marketing steps do you plan to reach them? (Affirmative marketing means analyzing which demographic groups are least likely to apply and taking extra steps to market the program to those groups. One aspect of affirmative marketing is implementing strategies to make your program more welcoming and comfortable to the groups which are least likely to apply. Be sure to consider race, ethnicity, and disability, as well as other demographic factors, in your analysis.) Community Mental Health Services (CMHS) monitors the demographics (resident, applicant, census data) of the market area to track race, ethnicity, religion or persons with disabilities for purposes of low-income housing units. They determine if the population least likely to apply for housing is the population identified, then provide advertising most applicable to the demographic groups, and make changes when applicable. According to CMHS's Mental Health Services Act (MHSA) Community Supports and Services Plan (2006), one of the goals of the MHSA is to increase "outreach and expansion of services to client populations in order to eliminate ethnic disparities and expand access to unserved and underserved individuals". The Latino population has been identified as the largest underserved group in Marin County, and "various strategies such as increased and strategic deployment of bilingual and bicultural staff, cultural competency training and targeted programming have been effective in increasing access to services." For instance, `it is known that many Latinos seek services for mental health problems from primary care health care providers rather than from mental health providers. New strategies such as contracting with Latino -serving organizations for outreach and engagement and providing mental health services within the Latino community, offer promise for better access." Together with its partner CMHS, Buckelew Programs continues to increase the cultural competence of our workforce through training and targeted job posting for hiring more bilingual/bicultural staff, in order to achieve a higher penetration rate and more adequately serve Latino clients in our housing programs. (Source:http://www. co.marin.ca.us/depts/HH/main/mh/mhsa_css/CSS State— version—of Plan.pdf) The most recent MHSA update (FY 2013-2014) states: "The Mental Health Services Act is intended to expand and transform community mental health services throughout California, with an emphasis on serving communities that are currently un- or underserved. During Marin's 2004 MHSA planning process the adult Latino population was identified as the most un/underserved by existing County mental health services. Asian Pacific Islanders were also categorized as underserved. Other identified underserved populations included older adults, transition aged youth (16-25 years old) and persons living in West Marin. Populations were designated underserved based on their proportionate use of Medi -Cal services relative to their presence in the Marin County safety net population. Designation of un/underserved populations takes into consideration the portion of Marin residents who are eligible for County mental health services, best represented by the "Medi -Cal Beneficiaries"' column on the following table. Overall, since the implementation of MHSA programs the rate of services provided by the County Mental Health has increased substantially for the Latino population, youth and older adults." (Source: http:!iwww.marinhhs.org/sites;`default'filesllibraries12013_08l06182013_mhsus_mhsa_fv13-14__annual_update.pdf) If this project involves housing, how will it affirmatively further fair housing? See above. In addition, by maintaining homes for the disabled in residential neighborhoods, Buckelew Programs is sustaining a housing pattern that allows low income, mentally disabled residents to live in neighborhoods they would not generally have access to or be able to afford on their own, creating a more fair and balanced residential mix and facilitating community integration of those with severe and persistent mental illness. Staff also regularly attend trainings at Fair Housing Marin to stay current on laws and regulations. If this project involves housing, how will it affirmatively further fair housing? See above.

Staff also regularly attend trainings at Fair Housing Marin to stay current on laws and regulations. If this project involves construction, discuss (1) your plans for recruiting women- and minority-owned firms to bid on the design and development of this project, and (2) your plans to provide employment opportunities to low-income people and businesses owned by low-income people. We will research all women- and minority-owned construction firms in the surrounding area and notify them that bids are being sought for the project. D. Accessibility: What steps are you taking to make this project (and your overall program) accessible to people with physical and other disabilities? 100% of Buckelew's clients have mental health disabilities. Buckelew Programs recently received funding from the Residential Rehab Loan Fund to make improvements to two bathrooms at Lakeside House which will result in increased accessibility for residents with mobility issues. E. Green Building: For new construction or rehabilitation, what will you do to incorporate "green building" principles? Green building techniques will be utilized wherever possible o For further information, please call Roy Bateman (473-6698).

Project Location: (Precise street address). For housing and capital projects, include the year the building was constructed and the Assessor's Parcel Number. Address: 626 Del Ganado, San Rafael, CA 9903. Parcel number: 178-113-23 This is a 30 plus year old complex that was built specifically for low income adults with developmental disabilities 5. Project Description: This is a 12 unit apartment complex with eleven 1 bedroom units and one 2 bedroom unit. The complex was built with funding to provide housing for low income persons with developmental disabilities. Many of the residents have lived in the complex since it was built. The four structures have wooden shingles as siding and are built in a square design with a grass courtyard in the middle. Five years ago, six of the 12 units were updated with new shingles, new windows, updated heating and air conditioning added. The six remaining units have not been updated due to lack of funding. The remaining buildings are at risk of extreme damage due to exposure and not having been repaired for many years. 6. Total Project Cost: (Include all costs for this particular project regardless of source.) $130,000 7. Project Budget for CDBG Funds: Budget must include an itemized estimate of how you would spend the CDBG amount you are requesting; as accurate and comprehensive as possible. For example. land or building acquisition costs, construction costs, remodeling costs, architectural and engineering fees, salaries, administrative expenses. etc. For rehabilitation or construction projects, you must include a contractor's written bid or other equally reliable cost estimate, using Davis- Bacon wage fates if applicable. If your project includes residential rehabilitation, describe your plans to comply with federal lead paint regulations. Funding provided for this project would be used to bring the six original units up to the same status as the six units that have been rehabilitated. This will include: 1. Replacement of wood shake siding that has weather damage and is aged. 2. Replacement of existing single pane windows with energy efficient double -paned windows. 3. Replacement of wall lights. 4. Demolition, repairing, patching, and painting. 5. Replacement of existing dry rot conditions. 6. Replacement of wood fascia. 7. Installation of heating/air conditioning units. 8. Other Sources of Funds for this Project: Include amount, source, use, status, and timing of funds other than CDBG funds, if applicable. Have you applied for the other funds? Are the other funds firmly committed for this project? Date You Are Funds Date Funds Were When Source Use Amount Applied Committed? Committed Available Reserves Remodel and $50,000 Yes Current rehabilitate 9. Project Implementation: Who will be responsible for implementing the project? How will it be implemented and what is the proposed schedule for project implementation? EAH administrative staff and Lifehouse Director of Finance and Administration will work together with the contractor to schedule remodel as soon as funds are available. Th project should take approximately one month to complete. 10. Need for the Project: A. Need Group What groups or individuals will benefit from the project? What income level will you serve? How will you document eligibility? CDBG recipients are required to provide documentation that the majority of the users have incomes at or below the CDBG income limits. The current upper income limits for CDBG beneficiaries are shown in the table below. Applicants for housing funds must describe how the project will ensure long-term affordability. Household Size Income Limit 1 $59,100 2 67,550 3 76,000 4 84,400 5 91,200 6 97,950 7 104,700 8 111,450 The residents of this complex live in their own apartments with supported living services from Lifehouse. Counselors are assigned to each resident to provide training and support for shopping, budgeting, meal planning, domestic tasks, scheduling medical appointments, and other support services. All the residents are on SSI and have MediCal and fall into the "extremely low income" category. The residents would have to live in a group home situation if this low income housing were not available. It is anticipated that these individuals will remain on SSI throughout their lives and will need this type of living arrangement. Copies of their SSI checks can be used for verification of income. At least one of the residents has health issues that necessitate her having air conditioning during the summer. B. Proiect Rationale: Why is this project needed? Will it assist an especially needy or underserved group? Funding for all projects of this type have been negatively affected by the economic downturn over the past few years. While the work has been needed for several years, funding requests have not been able to meet the need. There are reserves which will be tapped to match CDBG funds granted to accomplish completion of this project. C. Equal Opportunity For ali projects, which demographic groups are ieast likely to apply, and what affirmative marketing steps do you plan to reach them? (Affirmative marketing means analyzing which demographic groups are least likeiy to apply and taking extra steps to market the program to those groups. One aspect of affirmative marketing is implementing strategies to make your program more welcoming and comfortable to the groups which are least likely to apply. Be sure to consider race, ethnicity, and disability, as well as other demographic factors, in your analysis.) All these individuals have lifelong disabilities and meet any affirmative action requirements as a result. They are all in the category of Extremely Low Income. If this project involves housing, how will it affirmatively further fair housing? All the residents have disabilities and are low income and as a result fall into protected classes for ensuring equal access. If this project involves construction, discuss (1) your plans for recruiting women- and minority-owned firms to bid on the design and development of this project, and (2) your plans to provide employment opportunities to low-income people and businesses owned by low-income people. All of these factors will be considered in selecting the contractor to complete the work. It is the policy of EAH and Lifehouse not to discriminate and to ensure that minority groups are considered in the selection process. D. Accessibility: What steps are you taking to make this project (and your overall program) accessible to people with physical and other disabilities? The units are already occupied by individuals with developmental disabilities including some with physical disabilities and will continue to be used for that purpose. E. Green Building: For new construction or rehabilitation, what will you do to incorporate "green building" principles? A consultant on "green" construction and all available matierials will be used to accomplish "green" objectives. c For further information, please call Roy Bateman (473-6698).

In some cases, the residents themselves have to pay for utilities. All 50 residents are considered as "extremely or very low income". Lifehouse pays for the utilities in the other homes. Lifehouse is a non-profit agency which needs to find every possible way to conserve on costs since reimbursement from the state for their serves has been frozen and cut in the past few years. In addition to conserving on the cost of utilities, there would be less need for staff to make a trip to homes to turn down utilities when everyone has left the home during the day. Wireless units can maintain better control of the temperature at all times in the home. B. Project Rationale: Why is this project needed? Will it assist an especially needy or underserved group? It is extremely important to maintain a specific temperature in these homes as the residents have disabilities and several have medical conditions which would require them to have the correct temperature in the home.

Project Description: The Marinwood Village development will create 72 units of affordable housing available to households earning below 60% of the Area Median Income. The County of Marin has taken active steps to encourage the development of affordable housing to address the continued imbalance between the needs of both low income residents, as well as the tremendous number of people employed in low-wage jobs that are commuting into Marin and creating harmful environmental impacts. The County has been actively engaged in fostering the creation of affordable housing at the Marinwood Plaza site. Previously, the County has committed $531,791 in CDBG funding. Additional CDBG funding is a critical component of the financing plan for the development.

The EIR process will start once the County engages an EIR consultant. The surrounding neighborhood is primarily single story homes and an elementary and middle school as well as the IvIarinwood Community Center are located within walking distance of the site. in addition, the location is close to large regional employers including the County of Marin and Kaiser Permanente and regional bus service. The site will be able to compete for 9% federal tax credits. The proposed project offers a unique opportunity to meet the County of Marin's stated need for more affordable workforce housing while revitalizing a blighted part of an otherwise healthy neighborhood. 6.

Project Rationale: Why is this project needed? Will it assist an especially needy or underserved group? Marin County is the wealthiest county in Californl . th a hi; h home ownership rate and very littie affordable housing. Average "asking rents" within the Marin market have risen 34°: -ti in the cast 4 years (Raalfncts.com). Currently, the average "asking rent" for a 2 bedroom 1 bath apartment within this r-- arket area is $1,060 a ut of reach for very low and lova income households. This leads most low income residents to overpay for housing; 84% or renters at or below 80% of AMI are overpaying, according to the County Housing Element. The occupancy rate is currently over 95%, which indicates a very tight and unhealthy rental market. As documented by studies funded by the Marin Community Foundation, the majority Marin's service sector workforce commute into the County because the cost of housing in Marin is out of their reach. Marin's notoriously bad commute hour traffic and its impacts on air quality are a direct result of the County's overheated and over- priced rental market. The proposed Marinwood project will directly target these families who work in Marin and are in need of conveniently located, high quality housing at affordable rents. In addition to being affordable, the site offers the advantage of having public schools nearby in the acclaimed Dixie School District and transit linkages along Highway 101. Marinwood Market will provide convenient shopping and the project's on-site amenities will include laundry facilities, a multi-purpose community room, BBQ area, a community garden, open space, and play areas/courtyards. The site's location and affordably levels will help us to quickly fill units as they come o: clic-, C. Equal Opportunity- For all projects, which demographic groups are least likely to apply, and what affirmative marketing steps do you plan to reach them? (Affirmative marketing means analyzing which demographic groups are least likely to apply and taking extra steps to market the program to those groups. One aspect of affirmative marketing is implementing strategies to make your program more welcoming and comfortable to the groups which are least likely to apply. Be sure to consider race, ethnicity, and disability, as well as other demographic factors, in your analysis.) We won't know which demographic groups are least likely to apply until marketing begins, Latinos and African Americans constitute an extremely small demographic group within the immediate area surrounding the site. Affirmative marketing to these groups is likely to ;. , t quired. if this project involves housing, how will it affirmatively further fair housing?

HUD requires that all CDBG projects engage in affirmative marketing. That means analyzing which demographic groups are least likely to apply and taking extra steps to market the program or project to those groups. One aspect of affirmative marketing is implementing strategies to make your program more welcoming and comfortable to the groups which are least likely to apply. The goals of affirmative marketing are to enhance neighborhood diversity and to support the County's commitment to affirmatively furthering fair housing and equal opportunity. The concept of fair housing encompasses both federal and state laws that prohibit housing discrimination. The federal Fair Housing Act prohibits discrimination in the sale, rental, and financing of dwellings, and in other housing -related transactions, based on race, color, national origin, religion, sex, familial status (including pregnancy and the presence of children), and disability. in addition, state law prohibits housing discrimination on the basis_ of age, ancestry, marital status, medical condition, source of income, sexual orientation, gender expression, gender identity, and many other categories. 4.

Need for the Project: A. Need Group What groups or individuals will benefit from the project? What income level will you serve? How will you document eligibility? CDBG recipients are required to provide documentation that the majority of the users have incomes at or below the CDBG income limits. The current upper income limits for CDBG beneficiaries are shown in the table beloin . Applicants for housing funds must describe how the project will ensure long-term affordability.

The goals of affirmative marketing are to enhance neighborhood diversity and to support the County's commitment to affirmatively furthering fair housing and equal opportunity. The concept of fair housing encompasses both federal and state laws that prohibit housing discrimination. The federal Fair Housing Act prohibits discrimination in the sale, rental, and financing of dwellings, and in other hOLising-related transactions, based on race, color, national origin, religion, sex, familial status (including pregnancy and the presence of children), and disability.

Project Location: (Precise street address). For housing and capital projects, include the year the building was constructed and the Assessor's Parcel Number. 930 Tamalpais Avenue San Rafael, CA 94901 APN# 011-277-01 Existing building originally constructed in 1929 and subsequentiy remodeled 1987. 5. Project Description: Overview The impending arrival of the SMART train in the downtown area of Central San Rafael has presented Whistlestop (vNvw.whistlestop.org) with an opportunity to transform its current building into a transit -oriented senior center with on- site services and housing for seniors. This transformation will rot only allow bAlhistlestop to manage the impacts of the new train station, but will also allow for a modernization and expansion of their facilities that serve seniors all over Marin and create critically needed affordable housing for seniors. Whistlestop has partnered with Eden Housing to help realize their vision for a new facility that will include up to 51 units of on-site affordable senior housing to complement its Active Aging Center and Jackson Cafe. These affordable housing units will be owned separately by a tax credit partnership controlled by an Eden affiliate. This affordable component is the subject of this application. Community Benefits The new Whistlestop development will allow a highly respected and admired local non-profit to continue serving Marin County seniors and meet the growing demand for their services. According to a recent article in the Marin Independent Journal, more than one in every three Marin residents will be 65 or older by 2030. Meeting the needs of this so called "Silver Tsunami" will require a variety of improvements to available services including more convenient public transit, improved access to affordable health care, and increased availability of congregate meal and home -delivered food programs. Whistlestop — as the oldest and largest senior services provider, the paratransit operator for the whole County and with its location at Marin County's regional transportation hub (Bettini Transit Center) and future SMART station — is ideally positioned to help meet these needs and serve the aging population in Marin in the most efficient way possible. Its central location and transit options will make it easier for seniors to travel to the center, and the expanded building space will allow Whistlestop to continue leveraging partnerships with other non -profits to offer a wide array of services to seniors (health clinics, screenings, etc.). The new development will also provide up to 51 units of critically needed affordable housing for seniors. These one bedroom units will provide homes to very low to extremely low income seniors, aged 55 and older, who earn less than 50% of Area Median Income. The project will include high quality amenities including a community room, a computer center and library, and landscaped courtyards and furnished lobbies for casual social interaction. The affordable units will not only offer quality, safe homes at an affordable price, but as the first affordable transit -oriented community for older adults in Marin County, the development will also allow residents a high degree of mobility without a car. Combined with the on-site services offered by Whistlestop and the amenities in nearby downtown San Rafael, seniors will be able to live a rich, engaged life. Finally, the new Whistlestop building will offer opportunities to create a key gateway development into the City. Eden and its design team have already laid the ground work to collaborate with SMART to ensure that the station and building work together aesthetically and improve the urban environment for downtown shoppers, diners and other visitors. This kind of collaboration and leadership from the private and non-profit sector is particularly needed in an era without redevelopment agencies. The team will work with community stakeholders to design an anchor development with elements of civic gathering spaces that will activate, improve and enliven this corner of downtown San Rafael for all residents. Proximity to Transit, Services and Amenities for Future Residents Whistlestop Senior Housing will be developed on a quintessential infill site, located in the downtown area, and close to transportation, services, and community amenities. The future SMART train station will be located adjacent to development and will offer seniors the ability to travel easily through Marin and Sonoma counties. For more local trips, seniors will be able to walk two blocks to the Bettini Transportation Center where there are overl6 separate bus routes operated by three carriers including Marin Transit, Golden Gate Transit and Sonoma County Transit. In addition, Marin's Whistlestop Wheels Para -Transit service will be available on-site for all residents. Residents will also be able to partake in the senior services offered on-site in the Whistlestop Active Aging Center. Seniors will find enrichment and fitness courses, special events, game groups, specialty groups, and outreach services that bring people together, encourage social connections, and create new learning experiences. Finally, residents will also be eligible to receive low-cost lunches in the on-site Jackson Cafe, a program operated by Whistlestop. Other important amenities within 0.5 miles include a Walgreens, several banks, retail stores and restaurants and coffee shops. Affordability We plan to finance the housing component through the Low Income Housing Tax Credit Program (9% credits). As such, a Regulatory Agreement will be recorded on title requiring that the housing remain affordable at 501/!, of Area Pv1edian Income for a period of 55 years. Other projected financing sources may add other regulatory constraints. 6. Total Project Cost: (Include all costs for this particular project regardless of source.) The total project cost for this project is projected to be $22,530,134 -- with the residential component totaling $17,959,532. Approximately 60% of the site will consist of affordable senior housing and 40% for Whistlestop administrative and program uses. The attached pro forma and sources and uses schedule details the commercial and residential uses both separately and in combination. Project Budget for CDBG Funds: Budget must include an itemized estimate of how you would spend the CDBG amount you are requesting, as accurate and comprehensive as possible. For example, land or building acquisition costs, construction costs, remodeling costs, architectural and engineering fees, salaries, administrative expenses, etc. For rehabilitation or construction projects, you must include a contractor's written bid or other equally reliable cost estimate, using Davis - Bacon wage rates if applicable. If your project includes residential rehabilitation, describe your plans to comply with federal lead paint regulations. CDBG funds would be used exclusively for land acquisition costs. 8.

Eden and Whistlestop have entered into an agreement that will defines how the two organizations will implement the development, financial, ownership, construction, and operational responsibilities for the project. A Project Developer has been assigned the day to day responsibility for moving the project forward with support from the Director of Real Estate Development and the Executive Director. Eden has hired the architecture firm of Forsher + Guthrie. Working with Forsher + Guthrie, Eden and Whistlestop will work to secure all land use approvals from the City of San Rafael, as well as CEQA and NEPA approvals. The current estimated project schedule is as follows 2`2013 to 12/2013 Design Development 1/2014 to 121/2014 Public Approvals 3/2015 to 06/2015 Final Financing Commitments (Tax Credit Application/Award) 11/2015 to 5/2017 Construction 1/2017 to 6/2017 Rent Up CDBG funds will be spent on land acquisition at the close of construction, November 2015. 10.

The current upper income limits for CDBG beneficiaries are shown in the table below. Applicants for housing funds must describe how the project will ensure long-term affordability. Low, very low and extremely low income older adults, age 55 and older, will benefit from the project. Resident incomes will be limited to households with incomes at or below 50% of the Marin County Area Median Income, with some of these units designated to serve Extremely Low Income seniors. By the incorporation of Low Income Housing Tax Credits, regulations will be recorded on title requiring the development to remain affordable to residents with incomes at or below 50% of Area Median Income for a 55 -year term, with all residents' income re -certified annually. Eligibility will be documented in the leasing application process and our property manager will follow all compliance steps to ensure residents meet the CDBG income limits. Household Size Income Limit 1 $59,100 2 67,550 3 76,000 4 84,400 5 91,200 6 97,950 7 104,700 8 111,450 B. Project Rationale: Why is this project needed? Will it assist an especially needy or underserved group? Whistlestop Senior Housing will make an impact on what many have acknowledged as one of the foremost social problems in one of the nation's highest -income counties, namely a lack of affordable housing. Seniors are among the vulnerable populations affected by the lack of affordable housing. Most seniors live on fixed pension or social security incomes and are often times forced to choose between paying for their housing and paying for other important needs, such as medicine. The Census Bureau assessed that more than 71 % of Marin retirees receive Social Security income at a mean rate of $15,838, an amount that falls short of what the Elder Index calculates to be the income required for a senior person to be able to live in Marin. A retiree in Marin with these earnings would only be able to afford $396 per month for rent, based on paying 30% of one's income (a standard measure of housing costs). The number of elderly in Marin County, and across the nation, only continues to grow. According to a report from the Marin County Division of Aging and Adult Services, "...the older population in Marin is increasing rapidly. Between 2005 and 2010, the number of Marin residents over 60 is projected to grew to 75,900, with the largest increase in the 70 to 79 year old cohort. ABAG projects that by 2012, almost 30`,0 of Marin residents will be over age 60. This trend continues well into the foreseeable future, only slowing after 2030." Additionally, the California Department of Finance predicts that the elderly population will comprise 26° : of the population increase in Marin over the next 40 years, with the greatest percentage increase in those elderly over 75 years of age. The I,/larin Commission on Aging (MCA) predicts even greater increases in Marin's elderly population. By the year 2020, according to MCA, one out of every three Marin residents will be 60 years of age or older. Regional plans and assessments also document the need for this affordable housing. The ABAG Regional Housing Needs Assessment calls for 618 very low income housing units (those below 501/0 of AMI) to be built in Marin County between 2014 and 2022, and 240 very low income housing units to be built in San Rafael. Whistlestop Senior Housing's 51 units will meet 8% of Marin County's need and 21 % of San Rafael's need. Finally, the need for affordable housing in Marin is further evidenced by the low -vacancy rates and long -waiting lists at other affordable housing projects in the market area. In fact, both of Eden's existing properties in Marin have closed waitlists. C. Equal Opportunity: For all projects, which demographic groups are least likely to apply, and what affirmative marketing steps do you plan to reach them? (Affirmative marketing means analyzing which demographic groups are least likely to apply and taking extra steps to market the program to those groups. One aspect of affirmative marketing is implementing strategies to make your program more welcoming and comfortable to the groups which are least likely to apply. Be sure to consider race, ethnicity, and disability, as well as other demographic factors, in your analysis.) Affirmative Marketing The market area for Whistlestop Senior Housing is Marin County. The ethnic diversity of Marin's population is low but is increasing. In 1990, 88.7% of the population was white and 11.3% was African-American, Asian, Pacific Islander, or of other races. People of Hispanic origin (who may be of any racial group) made up 7.8% of the population. According to the 2000 Census, the nonwhite population increased to 16% and the Hispanic population to 11.1%. The white population was 84%. And for 2010, the nonwhite population increased to 20% and the Hispanic population to 15.5%. According to the 2010 Census, the racial composition of the City of San Rafael is 70.6% White, 2.0% African- American, 1.2% American Indian/Alaska Native, 6.1% Asian, 0.2% Native Hawaiian/Pacific Islander, 14.8% other population, 5.1 % two or more races, and 30% Hispanic or Latino. The racial composition for the Census Tract of the neighborhood is similar to that of San Rafael as well as Marin County, with some variation in the smaller minority numbers (see table), and Latinos being the predominant minority group. Eden Housing is eager to serve the minority market for senior housing in the market area. The table below shows the racial composition for Marin County, San Rafael, the Census Tract population, and Eden's portfolio.

In addition, as mentioned below, Eden will contact churches with large minority constituents in an effort to make sure that these minority communities have every opportunity to apply for residency at Whistlestop Senior Housing. Based on Eden's track record in affirmative outreach and marketing, Whistlestop Senior Housing will have a resident population that is more ethnically diverse than the population of the Census Tract of the project, the City of San Rafael, and Marin County. The diversity of the Eden's resident population increases Eden's confidence that it will capture a significant minority market for Whistlestop Senior Housing. Outreach Efforts to Minority Senior and Religious Organizations By creating an awareness of the project in the minority communities and incorporation of a sensitivity to cultural/ethnic issues in the building and service programs, Whistlestop Senior Housing will provide a much needed opportunity to minorities for quality affordable senior housing. Eden Housing, Inc. will continue to build on links to the minority communities. The following minority organizations are a sample of the organizations that will be contacted as part of the Affirmative Fair Housing Marketing Plan for this project: • Whistlestop Senior Center, San Rafael (Hispanic, Vietnamese, Persian, Russian)1 • Margaret Todd Senior Center - Alma Latina Club, Novato (Hispanic) • Canal Welcome Center, San Rafael (all minorities) • Marin City Senior Center, Sausalito (African-American, East Indian, Hispanic) • Grassroots Leadership Network, San Rafael (all minorities) • Spectrum LGBT, San Rafael (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender) • Fair Housing of Marin, San Rafael (all minorities) In addition to secular organizations serving minority groups, the following churches and religiously based organizations have been contacted and will be part of the marketing plan: • Episcopal Senior Communities • San Rafael First United Methodist Church • Valley Baptist Church • Saint Raphael Church & Mission San Rafael Archangel • Open Door Christian Church Eden will outreach to these faith communities and seek to deepen its relationship with them as the project moves through predevelopment/design/construction to the marketing phase. Eden also will advertise the property in regional newspapers and minority-owned newspapers. If this project involves housing, how will it affirmatively further fair housing? The housing component of the development will include up to 49 1 -bedroom apartments and 1 2 -bedroom manager apartment. The 1 -bedroom apartments will be rented exclusively to lower income older adults age 55 and older with incomes below 50% of Marin County Area Median Income. As described more fully above, due to the comprehensive racial/ethnic diversity of the population already served by Eden Housing and our partner Whistlestop, this project is uniquely positioned to attract substantial numbers of racial/ethnic minority applicants, thereby resulting in an almost certain diverse racial/ethnic resident population. Eden will work closely with Whistlestop to marketing the housing to racial/ethnic minority groups (leveraging their racially/ethnically diverse client base) and to ensure that all affirmative fair housing requirements set by the County of Marin, and by the HOME and CDBG program are met or exceeded. 1 Edcn', part -erste c,i', ',, � h skestr� p ✓i' .� stars �ess to a broad and divcrne cc ient base that ✓ve v, !, reach out to forth proiect.

IANstlestop will incorporate all of Its existing marketing communications strategies and programs to enccurage clients to apply for the neN affordable housing opportunity. INhistlestoo can provide personalized assistance help'�ng clients complete the appropriate application forms using our trained multicultural and bilingual staff. If this project involves construction, discuss (1) your plans for recruiting women- and minority-owned firms to bid on the design and development of this project, and (2) your plans to provide employment opportunities to low-income people and businesses owned by low-income people. Outreach to women and minority owned construction firms Eden will work with a general contractor to strategize maximum outreach to potential Minority Business Enterprises/ Women Business Enterprises (MBE/WBE) prior to subcontractor bidding. In addition to industry sources and contacts that the general contractor may have, which may include local Apprenticeship programs and training programs, Eden will outreach through both government affiliated and independent non-profit training and job -force development programs in Marin County. Eden will encourage the general contractor to look at MBE/WBE candidates for non - construction positions, such as administrative help in the contractor's office, if possible. Eden requires (via its contract with the General Contractor) that its contractors use best efforts by taking the following steps: 1. Request for sub bids from MBE/WBE Subcontractors/ Suppliers through bid advertisements and contacting local agencies for list of subcontractors. 2. Contractor must advertise the project in certain trade papers indicating that it's a MBE/WBE project and that there will be potential employment opportunities (i.e. Marin Independent Journal). 3. Contractor to check in with workforce developments agencies for list of available MBE/WBE workers. 4. Contractor to post flyers looking for potential new hires in the neighborhood of the jobsite, which identify the positions to be filled. Also post in other places such as Goodwill and the Housing Authority. 5. Contractor to include MBE/WBE clause in all subcontracts that requires subcontractors to make a great effort to hire MBE/WBE low income workers, maintain records, and forward them to the general contractor and Eden for our files. Subcontractors must undergo the same process as the general contractor in looking for new MBE/WBE hires. D. Accessibility: What steps are you taking to make this project (and your overall program) accessible to people with physical and other disabilities? Eden's practice is to make all units located on the ground floor or on a floor served by an elevator "adaptable" regardless of funding source and to "build -out" at least 5% of units where federal funding requires that we meet the Uniform Federal Accessibility Standards (UFAS). In addition, at least 2% of the units will be equipped to suit the needs of the hearing or visually impaired. We would like our senior residents to be able to age in place and encourage this by building senior properties in which all units can be accessed on grade or by elevator and all units are adaptable for accessibility. This practice is memorialized in our design guidelines, which are provided to our architect and general contractor at the beginning of a project and when they are periodically updated. Specifically, we plan to do the following for all senior units: • Install grab bars in all showers • Install backing for future installation of grab bars at toilets • Build removable base cabinets at kitchens and bathroom sinks • Install finishes that recognize seniors' distinct needs (e.g., provide pulls on all cabinet doors, provide good lighting Eden is an equal opportunity housing provider and employer and has adopted a non-discrimination policy. A non- discrimination statement is included in the footer of our letterhead and website and the equal housing opportunity logo and statement are posted in our central and property offices. Our property management affiliate Eden Housing I'vlanagement, Inc. has an established fair housing and reasonable accommodations policy. E. Green Building: For new construction or rehabilitation, what will you do to incorporate `green building" principles? Eden is an experienced "green" developer and is committed to incorporating green building principles into the design and construction of the project. We have been developing energy efficient buildings with durable, healthy materials and bay friendly landscapes with low water requirements for years. Our Sara Conner Court development was one of the first Green Point Rated projects in the Bay Area and we were named the Build it Green Affordable Developer of the Year for 2013. Our green strategy is guided by the requirements of our state funders, our participation in local technical assistance and rating programs, and our engagement of architects that are on the leading edge of green. We find that integrating green building principles into our developments can be an important means of building support for our work. This project will be participating in the GreenPoint Rated (GPR) program and is expected to exceed the 100 points under this program. The development will meet or exceed green building requirements by the City of San Rafael. o For further information, please call Roy Bateman (473-6698).

More deeply understanding these demographics will address some of the topics highlighted in the 2011 Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing in Marin. The data gathered on this form will NOT determine an organization's likelihood to receive CDBG or HOME funding. If you do not collect or do not wish to share the demographic information requested, please check the appropriate box below. We hope you will be able to participate in this pilot project. If you have completed a similar organization profile form when applying for foundation grants in Marin, feel free to use the information collected for those forms if submitted within the last 12 months.
